Harveys Excavating, LLC

Harveys Excavating, LLC, a Vermont-based small business and Subchapter S corporation, performs site preparation, excavation, roadway reconstruction, and facilities maintenance work for the USDA Forest Service as a 100% prime contractor under total small business set-asides. The company operates exclusively within set-aside vehicles and does not compete in full-and-open procurements, reflecting a posture entirely anchored to small business reserved programs.

Harveys Excavating's capability portfolio is narrowly concentrated in highway and facilities construction within the Green Mountain National Forest system. Representative work includes a $245,699.85 delivery order for trailhead and parking-area construction on Green Mountain National Forest under the Green Mountain NF General Construction IDIQ (awarded September 2022), a $41,142.50 purchase order for Forest Road 42C reconstruction involving rock excavation, clearing, grubbing, bank armoring, and drainage installation (awarded May 2026), and a $57,778 BPA call for Rochester Septic Pump Station repairs under the Northeast Region 9 Facilities BPA (awarded February 2023). The vendor also performs seasonal winter maintenance services — a $66,105 purchase order for snow plowing and de-icing at the Rochester Ranger Station (awarded December 2024, exercising option year 2 through April 2028).

Customer concentration is extreme: the Department of Agriculture Forest Service Region 9-Eastern Region accounts for 80 of 100 awards (94% by count) and $4.1 million of the $6.1 million combined potential value (67% by dollars). The second-largest customer, the Occupational Safety and Health Review Commission, carries only 10 awards with no named dollar magnitude. The source records four distinct customer agencies total.

Harveys Excavating holds positions on five parent vehicles, all Forest Service IDIQs and BPAs. The Green Mountain NF Construction IDIQ (2016–2019) carries 21 task orders totaling $235 thousand; Indefinite Delivery Contract 12168119D0003 carries 12 task orders for $481 thousand; Indefinite Delivery Contract AG24H8C130018 carries 12 task orders for $162 thousand; the Blanket Purchase Agreement 12445522A0013 carries 2 task orders for $66 thousand; and Indefinite Delivery Contract AG24H8C090010 carries 2 task orders for $999 thousand. The vendor also sits on a multiple-award Northeast Region 9 Facilities BPA with a $250,000 ceiling extending through February 2032.

Activity has declined materially over the past five years: five awards in 2021 dropping to one in 2024, with only two awards recorded in 2026. One award with combined potential value of $66 thousand faces ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, representing minimal recompete exposure. The vendor's work is almost entirely grounded in primary NAICS 237310 (Highway, Street, and Bridge Construction), with secondary work in landscaping and facilities maintenance. The vendor holds no subcontract relationships and has not pursued federal work outside the Forest Service's Eastern Region portfolio.
